And I think you're right; it's a good bet Anoop sings that. I like Slezak, but I disagree with him about Adam. I will still be watching Idolatry though, and his recaps are too witty to pass up. :) I just hope he changes his mind about Adam. I'm waiting for a REAL spoiler list... anyone???? TMZ might have one. I hate going over there because they are rude and sleezy, and I don't want to give their website any hits, haha. Plus it takes forever to load.

Cross Slezak off my list that is, not Adam. Lol. Anyway, I'm looking forward to a reliable spoiler list because I'm genuinely curious about what everyone has come up with. Lots of good suggestions in this thread. Slezak really dislikes Adam so I’ve had to cross him off my list this season. Cross Slezak off my list that is, not Adam. Lol.

He's curiously less critical in the photo gallery reviews and suggestions though, most likely hedging his bets lol.

Hopefully, he'll change the song up if he does sing it!

I also think Adam will do just fine regardless his choice. I just want to hear something spectacular!

I don't think that he has denied that this has brought him some attention and made people decide to listen to him. However, I just guessing (since I don't know him) that he's probably counting on the American people to listen to his vocals. Sadly many won't simply because because of this. Many others have had extra attention brought to them for various reasons as well which is why Kris Allen <strong>doesn't</strong> stand out and why so many count on him failing.

Now that I think about it, I would love Adam to sing "They Don't Really Care About Us". Just for the sheer drama of that song (one of my fav songs). Gah...seriously that was one of Michael's brilliant songs! And it was one of the first pop songs to use that synthesized sound effect in the song background. Y'know the one that EVERY pop star uses now. I know that song probably won't be on the approved list because it is soooo controversial. I think the producers know that Adam is gonna nail any MJ song this week. Look for him close to the end of the order of performances again this week... I am very excited for this theme as I have been a diehard fan of MJ's music since I was a child. So sad he is such a mess now. P.S. Michael Sarver or Jasmine Murray should sing "You Can't Win" by Michael from The Wiz soundtrack.
